Made this a while back and forgot to rate. Just made it again. Better than I remember. Basically a great recipe for cleaning out the fridge. We had some tomatillo sauce on the side, but I think this meal holds up very well on its own. Thanks for posting.

Migas is such a flexible breakfast dish. You can basically throw in whatever you have. I used chopped green chiles, shredded Monterey Jack cheese, chopped tomato, and onion. Season with salt and pepper. Topped with salsa and fresh cilantro. Yummy!

These were really good for Sunday brunch and quick too. They were similar to the ones we had a "Cantina Laredo".We served with refried beans, guacamole, and mimosas! Thanks for sharing your recipe

I subbed sausage for the bacon & added salt and pepper, but otherwise followed your recipe. My DH called it a stirred up spanish omelette and really liked it. I will definitely make this one again. It was fast to prepare and was a nice dinner on a cool night. Thank you for sharing your recipe.
